Bob Avakian aka BA seems like a serious man with a real vision, knowledge and the ability to organize and grow this movement. With Paul Street and his followers and many others seeking justice and true democracy, our friends and family and all others opposed to the now blatant corruption of our will as American citizens and voters, and with a few years to organize and strategize we might be able to lift the nasty juggernaut off our necks. (apologies for the ridiculously long sentences) I know that I am signing up.
Power does not need to operate from any concept or standpoint of right or wrong, only in such a way as to get the results it wants - and only something more powerful can stop it. If good people who care about right vs. wrong are more powerful than the US Supreme Court, then this would be the time to show that power. If this kind of power exists, then it is only from this power that revolution will arise? How do we get to it? That's my question. Because if we can't be more powerful, then this is the shit we will have to sit back and live with, until I suppose it just eventually burns itself out, which is going to be absolute hell to survive. The fight is on. Today's score - Supreme Court: 1, humanity: 0.
So now an insurrectionist can run for office, but can't assume the office if elected. How exactly does this solve the "potential chaos" problem? It seems to be a potential perfect storm problem to me. No justice, no peace.

QED.
